In July 2024, he achieved his career-high ranking of No. 48 after defeating No. 15 Shelton and reaching his first ATP Tour semifinals in Geneva. He also earned his first Top 20 win against No. 18 Jarry and reached the third round of the Australian Open as a qualifier. Cobolli has also reached the quarterfinals of ATP Tour events in Munich, Montpellier, and Delray Beach.

In his debut match in the main draw of an ATP Tour event in 2021 at Parma, Cobolli saved three match points against Giron and won with a score of 3-6, 7-6, 7-6. He has won Challenger titles at Zadar in 2022 and Lisbon in 2023, as well as reaching the finals in Rome-2 in 2021, Barletta in 2021, and Olbia in 2023.

During his junior career, Cobolli reached a career-high ranking of No. 8. He concluded his junior career by winning the boys’ doubles title at the 2020 Roland Garros alongside Stricker.

The Hamburg tournament has been won by players like Alexander Zverev, Lorenzo Musetti, Pablo Carreno Busta, Andrey Rublev, and Nikoloz Basilashvili in recent years.

Barcelona tournament. On clay, Cobolli has an 8-6 win-loss record this season, with his standout performance being a semifinal appearance in Geneva, where he lost to No. 7 Ruud.

On the other hand, Daniel Altmaier is 25 years old and currently ranked at World No. 71. His career-high ranking is No. 47, which he achieved in October 2023, just a day before his 25th birthday. In 2024, Altmaier has a win-loss record of 10-16, with his best result being a quarterfinal appearance in Auckland.

Notably, he has recorded clay court wins against No. 32 Fils at the ATP Masters 1000 Madrid and No. 44 Popyrin in Barcelona.
